Global Supply Chain Management

Our centralised procurement team has oversight and responsibility for managing and developing relationships within our supply chain for the benefit of our clients. We have partnerships with suppliers across the globe and where appropriate their local distributor networks. This coordinated approach allows us to be fast, flexible and first to market with a unique offer for our clients.

Seamless inventory management

Our global raw material supply chain is integrated with our local finished goods forecasting and replenishment program. This is seamlessly managed behind the scenes across multiple touchpoints to ensure that as our client you receive the right product, at the right time.

World class portfolio

We work directly with paper mills and material manufacturers and can access the best that our supply chain offers. This has successfully resulted in many application-specific innovations such as:

Haast, Oreti and Clarence, a set of beautiful uncoated materials which are part of our specialty digital label material portfolio

Raw material consistency

By taking a long-term partnership approach to our raw material supply chain we remove variability. This ensures consistency from batch to batch over time. Our organisational commitment to quality is built from our deep understanding of the importance of having the right liner, the right adhesive coat weight and the right top sheet. We use our laboratory to ensure that compliance with specifications is maintained over time and that our clients receive fit for purpose labels.

Risk Mitigation

We maintain stable relationships with our key material partners to provide consistent specifications to our clients. However we are always looking for continuous improvement and qualified alternatives in key material categories as part of our risk mitigation strategy. This reduces our exposure to foreign exchange movements or commodity price spikes allowing us to provide our clients with greater price certainty. Our procurement team continues to work collaboratively with our supply chain partners and across our organisation to benefit our clients.
